Hi,

There's something I wanna ask

After the battery update, long time ago, my PB start a curious routine....

It charges (indicates 100% in the apple menu)

Then battery start lose power, very slowly. In the next day appear 99%, next 98%, and message always say "battery is charged" when I click on the icon. (This happens with my PB connected in AC outlet or not)

When reaches 93%, automatically charges and then, the same happens.

Anyone knows if this is normal??

Besides that, it works fine. 4h30, sometimes more, with low brightness, and charges normally

thanks

regards

yep it's normal. your powerbook will still cycle the battery even if it's plugged in all the time. mine's at 97% and it's been charging for a few days now. It'll be between 96-100% most of the time.

I think there's a technote on this somewhere....
